Re: Whose on Steelies? Post 'em up!

To 67 C-30 (or anyone else that can advise),

I was planning on posting a question about using original steel wheels after I complete my power disc brake conversion and 2.5/4 drop. It seems like the people on this post likely hold the answer to my question, so I'll just post here. I've found some 15" 6 lug disc wheels that will enable me to use my original hubcaps. However, I've read a couple of posts that seem to say that there is an issue with control arm clearance with 15" wheels after a 2.5" spindle drop. Is this the case? If so, how did you get around it?

Thanks!
